  • Here You See the Most Life and Interesting People, Go There
    REBECCA CASSIDY Introduction Pathos and Poetry The fi rst episode of Luck , a television series created by David Milch (NYPD Blue , Deadwood ), directed by Michael Mann (Manhunter , Heat ) and fi lmed at Santa Anita Park in California, aired on Home Box Offi ce in December 2011. It was immediately taken into a second season and broadcast in Britain in early 2012. In the conservative world of television writing, David Milch is regarded as a maverick genius, known for his uncompromising take on American life. Luck is no Seabiscuit . The fi rst episode weaves together a number of stories: the release from prison of Chester ‘Ace’ Bernstein (Dustin Hoffman), a racehorse owner with links to organised crime; a pick-six attempt by four inveterate gamblers or ‘railbirds’; and a hard boot trainer (Nick Nolte) with a dark horse. It also includes the humane destruction of a horse on the track, its head cradled in the arms of a tearful bug boy. Luck is a complex, unfl inching portrayal of violence and corruption at the track. Dialogue- and character-driven, it invites refl ection and understand- ing rather than judgement. Milch, a lifelong race fan and winner of two Breeders Cups, describes his series as ‘a love letter’, albeit an unsentimental one: ‘To me, the track is what the river was to Mark Twain. Where you see the most life and interesting people, go there. That’s what I’ve done.’ 1 In March 2012, halfway through fi lming the second episode of the second sea- son, production of Luck was permanently suspended by HBO, when a third horse had to be euthanized as a result of an accident on the set.

Rather, it was establishing a broad inventory of reference material for horsemen, a few hobbyists, and a few scholars. In a broader sense, it was storing up information against the day when racing, as the most nearly universal of the great spectator sports and as a large industry affecting social and economic life, would be called upon to furnish data for research in genetics, probability theory, economics, manners and morals, history, law, physiology, psy­ chology, and other fields of inquiry.

  • Downloaded from Manchesterhive.Com at 09/27/2021 08:12:04PM Via Free Access 42 Horseracing and the British, 1919–39
    2 Horseracing, the media and British leisure culture, 1918–39 edia experience was part of everyday activity. It helped make sense of the Mworld and construct cultural citizenship.1 Reading the racing pages in the sporting, national and regional press or the adverts, novels and non-fiction with a racing theme, provided a temporary escape from Britain’s economic problems. Watching breathtaking racing action shots in newsreel and film was enhanced by ever-improving photographic equipment. As electricity and radio became more available, the BBC radio commentaries on the premier races, with their sustained dramatic action, contributed to the creation of an emerging mass cul- ture. In the late 1930s the first television coverage arrived. The inter-relationships between racing and British culture, society and the media were ambiguous, complicated and subtle. The following sections explore the highly complex, sophisticated and resolutely populist cultural representa- tions of racing and betting in the mass media, whose ideological power and dominant, negotiated and oppositional influences played a crucial role in fos- tering British sporting identity.2 They fed off and contributed to an interest in racing, helping to reconstruct social identities and rework norms and values. The media confirmed and reinforced the extent to which racing was part of a common culture, a highly popular leisure form across all levels of British society, and made celebrities out of leading racing figures. Racing and the media were interdependent, shaping and reflecting the increased interest in racing and betting, whilst at the same time, in fiction and film, presenting a partial, distorted or imagined view of racing culture.

    huggins cvr 8/14/03 12:10 PM Page 1 STUDIES IN POPULAR CULTURE STUDIES IN STUDIES IN ‘This book reveals some major findings, not least about the part that POPULAR POPULAR CULTURE Horseracing racing and betting played in the lives of women, and the sport’s CULTURE inherent conservatism. It is genuinely British in its approach and uses a HUGGINS wide range of primary and secondary sources from across the nation to bring out local and regional variations.’ and the British Wray Vamplew, University of Stirling ROM THE PRIZE-WINNING AUTHOR of Flat Racing and British Society F 1780–1914, this is the first book to provide a detailed consideration of the 1919–1939 history of racing in British culture and society and to explore the cultural world of racing during the interwar years. MIKE HUGGINS It breaks new ground by showing how racing’s pleasures were enjoyed even by Horseracing andtheBritish the supposedly respectable middle classes, and gave some working-class groups hope and consolation during economically difficult times. Regular attendance and increased spending on betting were found across class and generation, and women too were keen participants. Enjoyed by the Royal Family and controlled by the Jockey Club and National Hunt Committee, racing’s visible emphasis on rank and status helped defend hierarchy and gentlemanly amateurism, and provided support for more conservative British attitudes. The mass media provided a cumulative cultural validation of racing, helping define national and regional identity, and encouraging the affluent consumption of sporting experience and frank enjoyment of betting. The broader cultural approach of the first half of the book is followed by an exploration of the internal culture of racing itself: the racecourse and course life, trainers and jockeys such as Steve Donoghue or Gordon Richards, trainers like Fred Darling or the Honourable George Lambton, owners and breeders such as the Aga Khan, Lord Rosebery or the actor Tom Walls.
